Chapter 5 introduces a substitute for the traditional Obí Abatá, using coconut shells and cowrie shells to mimic the original kola nut used in divination. While convenient, this substitute is not a full replacement for fresh Obí in all rituals. The chapter also explores the spiritual polarity of Obí, distinguishing between masculine and feminine energies represented by open and closed segments in divination.

Chapter 6 outlines the basic interpretation of Obí Abatá, focusing on five primary positions that provide simple yes/no answers in divination. These positions—Alaafia, Etawa, Ejife, Okanran, and Oyeku—help practitioners determine the outcome of inquiries.

Chapter 7 delves deeper into these positions, explaining their meanings and how they guide decisions.

Chapter 8 introduces the concept of gender in Obí divination, adding complexity to the interpretations. It discusses additional positions that provide more nuanced readings, such as Ilerá (good health), Ajé (wealth), and Oyeku (impediment).
